What reading level is Wild Fowl book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Among other instances which I could give, I recollect that one January evening, at dusk, I punted close up to the flank of a large gaggle, consisting of, perhaps, one or two thousand birds, all swimming heedlessly up to the open flats. From my recumbent position I could almost distinguish the feathers of their wings and breasts, and I verily believe I might have approached even nearer had I desired to do so. The pick-up after that shot was forty-two geese.
K 1 78 SHOOTING THE GOOSE Hitherto my ...remarks have been mainly directed to the consideration of punting to geese in the open. In some localities brent frequent feeding-grounds where, from the nature of their environments, they fall a more ready prey to the wiles of the punter. By way of example, on the west coast of France there are many small islands and patches of rugged rocks, in some of the principal bays and estuaries, which are partially surrounded by mudbanks and clad with a green verdure of sea-grass at low water. As a back- ground from which to approach the brent these islands and rocks often served my purpose admirably, and, when wind and tide were favourable, I must have killed many hundreds of geese in these resorts every winter.
